On May 14, Nancy's Annual Mother's Day 5K Run/Walk for Opioid Awareness was held at the Chelmsford Elks Lodge 2310. More then 354 compassionate, strong and supportive people of all ages came together to support a loved one or in memory of a loved one, all for the fight against addiction.

The gracious hosts, founders and co-directors Don and Nancy Patch, along with Chelmsford Elks members, made the day extremely special for everyone who attended.

The soaking-wet runners and walkers were treated like gold, from doughnuts and coffee in the morning, to different types of breakfast bars, health foods, pizzas, soft drinks and waters, to carnations, a souvenir mug, T-shirts, and a complimentary champagne toast in beautiful lavender flutes, and so much more!

This single event raised $7,500. For more information, visit NancysRunChelmsford@yahoo.com.
